Testimonials


"GREAT AGENTS FOR FIRST TIME BUYERS!  I met Janelle & Eric, who impressed me with their knowledge about what the real estate processes involved. They had personal experience rebuilding a house and were able to provide guidance on building codes, resources for actual work, and probable costs along the way. This helped me map my financial capabilities, so I could stay within my budget. I plan to use them again when the time comes to "move up"."

- J. Silverman



We are incredibly lucky to have discovered Eric and Janelle several years ago. Their professionalism, attention to detail, expert guidance, and overall "can do" attitude made home buying and selling a great experience. We have sold two homes and bought two homes with this wonderful team, and every single transaction had the best possible outcome because we followed their keen advice. Eric and Janelle are incredibly successful for a reason...they provide the best service in town and have proven results. Buying or selling a home is a life-changing event and we are so fortunate to have discovered a real estate team who genuinely wants to help us find the best possible housing option. We would not be living in the beautiful neighborhood and home we have now if it weren't for them. Thank you Eric and Janelle!...
